Article Lemongrass Essential Oil ****************************************************** Vol. 8: Issue 36
****************************************************** Well summer is upon us finally!!! It seems that it has taken a long time in coming around this year. No complaints though! I thought talking about lemongrass this month would be a good topic since it makes a very nice insect repellant. It actually smells better than citronella. We do have some products featured that have lemongrass in it. It is a very light and refreshing scent and it really keeps the bugs away. I remember one year I put Heavenly Dreams on my body in the morning and in the evening, I went out to do some gardening. The mosquitoes were definitely around and they would land and leave and I wasn't getting bit. I thought that to be rather interesting until I realized that in the morning I put on the Heavenly Dreams lotion on and it had to be a good 8-10 hours later and it was still working even though I could not smell it. Needless to say I was very surprised that it was still working. That is why I love essential oils so much, they really do work!!! Have a great summer until next month. ****************************************************** Lemongrass Lemongrass is produced in India, Central America and Brazil. Lemongrass was traditionally used by the Indian as an antidote against infectious diseases, fever and cholera. Citral, the primary constituent of the amber/yellow oil, provides a potent and refreshing scent that’s popular in household products like detergents, room sprays, and insecticides. You can refresh the air in a room–and brighten the mood–by placing a few drops of the oil in a light bulb ring or room diffuser. Lemongrass is especially good for oily, acne-prone skin and lackluster hair. It makes an excellent addition to deodorants, soaps, cosmetics, shampoos, skin lotions and tonics. Use it in a massage oil to relieve stress, headaches, and muscular aches and pains. Enhance your favorite skin care products with a few drops of lemongrass essential oil, or simply use it into your bath water. Lemongrass calms, revitalizes, relieves tension, invigorates and inspires. Awakening Spirit offers several products enhanced with lemongrass: Heavenly Dreams Crème, Don’t Bug Me Insect Repellent, and Flu Rescue Therapeutic Oil. Be sure to try them out. ****************************************************** Watch Out For These Essential Oil Traps:
